From the 25th
of February until the 9th of March Coventry University and The
University of Warwick will compete in their annual sporting showcase, the
Varsity. It features a range of sports; including Hockey, Badminton,
Equestrian, Cricket, Athletics, Swimming, Pool, Snooker, Basketball, Football
and American Football. The event is a high-level competition, where some of the
best athletes in the West Midland region meet. The winner is awarded the
Varsity Shield.
The Event will begin
with the Men’s ice Hockey fixture and conclude with the rugby teams battling it
out for the final event fixtures. Our blog will sum up happenings and provide
up-to-date standings at the end of every event day. Coventry has never beaten
their rivals, but hopes are big this year after closing in, edging ever closer
during previous years. The team will compete with the slogan “ONE TEAM, ONE
DREAM” hoping to finally overcome Warwick, who themselves state their intent
with their poster campaigns “IT ALL COMES DOWN TO THIS”.
Whatever happens, we
can expect a great sporting competition and some tense and nail biting
fixtures. This will be the place to be if you do not want to miss out on the
action!
If you want to be
there live and soak up the atmosphere, the fixture list is included below.
Tickets are available from the Student Unions at reasonable price. (From the
Coventry Student Union the Ice Hockey opening event will be priced at £3, with
the option to purchase an all inclusive tickets for £10 - including the Varsity
T-Shirt!)
